    By the way, the openbox --restart in my system leads to a strange 
problem. The window of the Conky, which until then had been below all 
windows, after the --restart become above all windows. Conky 
configuration contains the following lines:

own_window yes
own_window_transparent no
own_window_type override
own_window_hints undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager

(This config is suitable fo run Conky under Gnome)

    I decide this problem by restarting conky after openbox restart, but 
I wonder what's going on?
